CALL FOR PAPERS
SIGCHI-NZ Symposium on Computer-Human Interaction
www.cs.waikato.ac.nz/chinz2002
University of Waikato, Hamilton, NZ
July 11th - July 12th 2002
Human-Computer Interaction is the noble face of Computer Science. It's the
part that can bring hope to an increasingly push-button world that often
seems frustrating and confusing to users.
The 3rd Annual ACM SIGCHI NZ symposium on Computer-Human Interaction will
bring together New Zealand's growing community of interactive system
researchers and industry practitioners. The two-day event will encourage,
inspire and motivate us all to make our users' lives, our communities and
society better.
Harold Thimbleby, the internationally renowned and innovative HCI researcher
who is Director of the University College London Interaction Centre UK, will
give the opening Keynote. The programme will also provide many opportunities
for us to share new interactive techniques, technologies and methods and to
pursue collaborative opportunities. And, of course, with a good social
programme, there will be times to relax, catch-up and enjoy the visit to
Waikato.
We encourage submission of detailed research findings, work-in-progress,
case-studies, industrial perspectives, student work and system
demonstrations.
IMPORTANT DATES
10th May 2002 all submissions due
10th June 2002 response to authors
